The Philippines continued to see strong growth in women`s tights and leggings imports in 2024, with top exporting countries being China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Turkey, and Indonesia. Despite a slight decrease in growth rate from 2023 to 2024, the industry maintained a high level of market concentration, indicating a competitive landscape. With a notable CAGR of 25.03% from 2020 to 2024, the market for women`s tights and leggings in the Philippines is poised for continued expansion and development in the coming years.

Womens tights and leggings have become wardrobe staples in the Philippines, largely driven by the athleisure trend and growing participation in fitness activities. Comfort, stretchability, and moisture-wicking properties are key selling points. The market is served by both domestic and global activewear brands, with a strong presence in online channels. The appeal extends beyond fitness, as tights and leggings are also used for casual and travel wear.
The market for womens tights and leggings in the Philippines is on the rise, supported by growing interest in fitness, athleisure, and comfort-driven fashion. These garments are popular among millennials and Gen Z consumers for both exercise and casual wear. Brands are responding with performance-oriented fabrics and inclusive sizing, while e-commerce boosts reach.
This market faces challenges from fluctuating raw material prices, especially for synthetic fabrics like spandex and nylon, which can affect profitability. The lack of strong local sportswear brands also results in heavy reliance on imported products. Moreover, the tropical climate of the Philippines limits the year-round demand for tights and leggings, which are more suited to colder environments, thereby constraining growth potential.
With the growing trend of athleisure and fitness culture in the Philippines, the womens tights and leggings market presents attractive investment opportunities. Brands focusing on comfort, innovative fabrics, and affordability are gaining traction. Investors can explore manufacturing partnerships, direct-to-consumer online sales, and collaborations with gyms and fitness studios. There is also rising interest in plus-size and inclusive sizing, expanding the market reach.
The market for womens tights and leggings in the Philippines is shaped by policies supporting the textile and apparel industry, consumer safety standards, and international trade. The DTI and PEZA offer incentives for apparel manufacturers, including those producing tights and leggings, particularly for export. The Bureau of Philippine Standards (BPS) enforces textile labeling and quality regulations, ensuring that imported and locally produced apparel meet safety and performance standards. Garments containing synthetic fibers may also fall under specific health and safety advisories, especially regarding skin contact materials. Additionally, under the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA), the Philippines enjoys low-tariff access to apparel raw materials and finished goods, facilitating both import and re-export of leggings. Support for MSMEs in apparel and fashion design further enhances the market by boosting local brand development and distribution.
